To access FoxPro databases from UNIX, Linux, and macOS:

  1. Install the ODBC-ODBC Bridge client on the machine from which you want access FoxPro.
  2. Install the ODBC-ODBC Bridge server on the Windows machine where your FoxPro ODBC driver is installed.
  3. Create a FoxPro system DSN on the Windows machine in ODBC Data Source Administrator.
  4. Create an ODBC-ODBC Bridge client data source. The TargetDSN value is the name of the system DSN you created in step 3.

Refer to the ODBC-ODBC Bridge manual for a full description of this process.
